This season we’re glad to introduce to you our brand new event series; IPWS Thought Activator.

IPWS Thought Activator is a monthly series that connects people through meaningful conversations. The aim is to help you expand your network and more effectively make valuable connections by taking part in an informal, guided activity. Each event is centered around a specific theme, which attendees will reflect over in smaller groups, making it easy to get to know one another while gaining insight and perspective.

The themes for Thought Activator events range from topics that are too often not given the recognition or attention they deserve, to issues that are old and familiar, but in need of a fresh perspective. During the event, our Activator of the Month will introduce and share their expertise on the topic of the evening. Following the short presentation, attendees are encouraged to reflect on related questions, while networking throughout the evening.


Join us on October 10th for the first IPWS Thought Activator, with the theme: 
A Different take on Leadership - “Women Don’t need to act like men to own our space and our power" 
[quote by Rebekah Neumann, WeWork Cofounder]
